Boston,  Mass.,  1889. 

Dear  Sir: 

In  again  presenting  to  3*011  our  catalogue,  we  wish 
to  call  your  attention  to  our  removal  from  our  old 
stand,  on  the  corner  of  Stillman  Street,  to  11  and  12 
Charlestown  Street,  which  we  were  forced  to  do 
by  the  rapid  increase  in  our  business.  We  have  now 
larger  and  more  commodious  quarters,  situated  directly 
in  front  of  the  Boston  & Maine  depot. 

To  our  success  we  attribute  the  facilities  we  have 
of  filling  our  orders  promptly,  the  quality  of  our  goods, 
and  the  lowness  of  our  prices  for  first  quality  of  goods. 

We  make  a specialty  of  Wood  Mantels,  of 
which  we  keep  a large  assortment  on  hand;  and  we 
make  them  to  order  at  short  notice. 

We  should  be  pleased  to  show  you  our  goods,  and 
if  you  should  look  through  our  three  floors  at  11  and 
12  Charlestown  Street,  and  then  through  our  five  floors 
on  Beverly  Street,  which  comprises  our  factor}*,  we 
would  let  you  decide  whether  we  have  not  the  best 
facilities  of  getting  out  everything  in  the  Building- 
Trimming  line  of  an}*  house  in  Boston. 

Thanking  you  for  past  favors,  and  respectfully 
soliciting  a continuance  of  the  same,  we  remain, 

Yours  respectfully, 

0.  J}.  Millw  g(£) 


We  would  specially  call  your  attention  to  our 
large  and  varied  stock  of 

PINE  AND  WHITEWOOD  MOULDINGS, 


which  are  made  from  the  best  kiln-dried  stock;  they 
are  all  concaved  on  the  back,  and  require  less  labor 
in  putting  them  on  than  those  manufactured  by  other 
houses. 

We  also  have  a fine  assortment  of  Walnut,  Ash, 
and  Cherry  Mouldings,  for  cabinet-makers’  use. 

Below  we  give  prices  of  Soft  and  Hard  Wood 
Mouldings,  per  running  foot:  —

MAGEE  FURNACE  COMPANY. 


Over  10,000  MAGEE  RANGES, 

2,000  “ FURNACES,  and 

13,000  “ HEATING  STOVES 

WERE  SOX,  I>  I IV  1887. 

These  figures  are  more  eloquent  than  volumes  which 
might  be  written  in  praise  of  the  peculiar  merits  pos- 
sessed by  the  Magee  goods. 

Miss  Parloa  says  of  the  Ranges : 

“ I use  the  Magee  Range  constantly  in  my  schools  and  private 
kitchen;  it  fulfills  every  requirement  for  the  most  exacting  work; 
I would  not  exchange  it  for  any  Range  made.” 

Send  for  our  Furnace  Circular,  and  read  what  Phy- 
sicians, Professors,  Scientists.  Mechanics,  and  Mer- 
chants say  of  the  Magee  Furnaces  they  have  in  use. 
Don’t  put  in  Steam  or  Hot-Water  Apparatus  till  you 
know  what  a first-class  Hot-Air  Furnace  will  do  for 
half  the  cost. 

15  Myrtle  St.,  Jamaica  Plain,  Mass.,  Felt.  26. 

Magee  Furnace  Co.:  Dear  Sirs,— Having  discarded  three  fur- 
naces, in  twelve  years,  the  last  one  after  a trial  of  only  one  year, 
on  account  of  the  escape  of  gas  into  the  house,  to  t lie  injury  of 
health  and  comfort,  I have  used  your  Boston  Heater  Furnace  'one 
year,  without  ever  having  gas  escape,  or  any  fault  to  find  with  it  in 
any  particular,  — running  it  a great  part  of  the  winter  with  the 
front  door  open;  and  were  1 to  build  a new  house,  largo  or  small,  1 
would  not  substitute  any  other  furnace  for  it,  even  though  fur- 
nished free  of  cost.  Respectfully,  S.  B.  Swktt,  M.D.
